Looks like that video was removed.
Found another link, though probably lower quality.

I live in Oklahoma. I will probably be making a phone call or two to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol tomorrow, and possibly my representatives, to express my dismay.
This is completely unacceptable.
Even if Coldplay did "rip it off," so what?
Creative works are creative even if they borrow from other sources. What makes them creative is how they use those sources. Whether or not you think Coldplay is a very good band or very original, their use of the melody constitutes a new work, a new take on an old idea.
If we were to make this a big deal, we'd have to get rid of Weird Al Yankovic. A whole lot of classical music is right out; they borrowed from each other all the time, riffing on each others' themes. DJ's would be out of work. They practice their craft by remixing and juxtaposing the very recordings done by other musical artists.
Come on, people. Let's not squash what little culture America has.
